Hi, hope someone can help, we are travelling down from Stonehaven and stopping near Perth or Dundee not set in stone yet and wonder if anyone knows of a good trekking or horse riding place to visit?

Not riding but if you fancy something a bit different, Bandirran Clydesdales used to do guided tours and carriage rides. They are West of Perth, on the road to Crieff.

We had a good hack at Crieff hydro but that was quite a few years ago and I don't know what they are like nowadays. Worth a Google anyway.

I've ridden at the Hydro quite a few time before Covid -I went to courses/work meetings & stayed on after. Not been for 3 years as retired now.
I found them a bit patchy. I had lovely rides at quiet times of year. The staff were always lovely & they seem to have a good selection of horses. The horses are schooled/ridden by staff periodically so are not just robots. However when they were busy I got lumped together with other riders of varying ability & there isn't any provision for the group to split so you all end up going at the speed of the slowest. They only do one hour rides.
